Flower of the Month-March
Published March 14, 2008 Flower of the Month 1 CommentTags: March, spring, tulips, wedding flowers
Our monthly flower happens to be the official flower of March, tulips! The meaning of tulips is perfect love, which is a wonderful choice for a wedding flower. There are a wide range of tulip varieties and colors available which help tie in your chosen wedding colors. Like many other flowers that come in different colors, the colors also have meaning. Yellow tulips for example originally represented hopeless love while white tulips were used to send a message of forgiveness.

Planning A Spring Wedding?
Published March 13, 2008 Seasonal Thoughts Leave a CommentTags: flowers, Spring wedding ideas
Oh Spring is delightful! For Oregonians Spring means that sunshine is soon approaching us.
Spring is a time of rebirth and renewal which is a perfect theme for a wedding! One fabulous thing about planning a Spring wedding is that if falls short of the popularity of the summer and autumn wedding dates. Great news for the Spring Bride & Grooms as more top-notch vendors will be available, and you may be able to get discounted rates, especially on sites and travel. There is also school Spring Breaks which allow for out of town guests to travel to your wedding that otherwise may not have been able to attend. Keep in mind when planning events in Spring that high school PROMS can really compete with tux rentals and limousines, so book those early in the process. Don’t forget the importance of “The Back-up Plan” as they are essential for Oregon Spring weddings as our weather is always unpredictable. You know who is great with a Plan B…? Hitched is, give us a call and we can help make Plan B as great as Plan A!
